Isen vs Rohan

There's a way to kill those first Rohirrim with the 2 x-bows, ESPECIALLy when you have a level 2 one. I'm keeping it to myself though since nobody listens to me anyway laugh.gif

review by tommynt

turtle (Isen on left) vs genub (Rohan on right)
Verion: 1.03
Map: Fords of Isen


turtle (Isen on left)

Bo: Pit, uruk xbow, furn, xbow, furn, pikezerkspam, upgrades, combos

Pros:
+ xbows owning peasants
+ good pike/zerk spam to get mapcontrol
+ tower spam to defend kinda early
+ constantly tried to get mapcontrol back
+ Lurz/balista/combos to own heros
+ recover injured combos

Cons:
- workers never runing from getting killed
- xbows running into horses
- pikes slow/not running from peasnts and elves
- NO WARGS ohmy.gif
- no base defense in end
- no unit mixing

Comments: U tried to win without wargs and u failed badly. Thats kinda all i can say about this game, just like 2 bats of wargs at any point d have gotten u mapcontrol and Rohan not the ability to constantly loose units/ents but rebuild em right away.
Pikes get owned by peasnts and elves, there u just NEED to mix army - this is 1.03 not 1.02.

Rating: 6


genub (Rohan on right):

Bo: 2 farm in, Stables, constantly peasnts, upgrades, Ara, Theo, ents

Pros:
+ hiding peasnts, might have worked
+ allways stable eco
+ fast creeping/lvl horses
+ used Aras huge healthbar well
+ upgraded peasants constantly fighting for mapcontrol
+ allways tried to be aggresive
+ ew to counter rain
+ great defense in end

Cons:
- wasted loads of peasnts without blades to zerks
- could have attacked and killed him with upgraded horses and elves
- lost kinda lot of upgraded peasnts in hopeless fight/ when running into his fully towered base
- no lego micro
- bit late theo
- left loads of combos allive with 1 man frusty.gif
- ents not trampling combos

Comments: U kinda went the Rohan strat to win this game. Your horses were creeping and leveling fast and your peasnts were owning his pikes. Ara fighting combos good choise aswell. You just missed your chance to attack when u got elves the 1. time - do it as Gondor does, get horses ups and elves and own fod base!
Look at all your pros, some really nice ones in em! Trample combos with ents right away, they kinda instant kill the xbows

Rating: 6+


General Notes on the game: Some nice big fights in this game, but sadly Isen didnt do too much what slowed the game and therefore entertainment a bit down. Isen tried win without wargs and failed badly in end. Rohan went a kinda good strat and units choise but lost loads of units very needless. Still a good watch with unknown outcome till the end. (I didnt read this useless comments biggrin.gif )

Entertainment: 6-

Overall Score: 6

Nice review. Yea that was pretty bad with lego laugh.gif. I usually do trample combos with ents however I think I was paying attention to my horse bats in his base at the time. What is Rohan's best counter to his combos, it was ridiculous how many peasant bats they were bashing at some points of the game wacko.gif Tommy what is 6+ for a rating, like 6.5?
